48 VAN still being used?????

The standard is 53' x 102" so you could be hard pressed there... especially if it is 96" wide, then you're really SOL or up #### creek without a paddle.

 

I think maybe for local or LTL work it would be cool

 

We ran our 51 foot until 2 years ago.........

 

Looking at internet truckstop, there are loads posted that you can use a 48

 

Many places use 48 but over 50% of the loads offered require a 53 from what I noticed.

 

How do you know if you got a good deal, If you don't know what you bought?

 

You should be alright running heavy groceries in the Northeast. It will get frustrating though when moron second week on the job brokers demand a 53' van for two pallets.

 

Or if he runs across any light freight that actually does require a 53 footer..

 

48 for local city work where you need every inch to maneuver thru the small roads.
